MVFC – Postseason Week 2 Preview

November 30, 2018November 29, 2018 Scott Lawson

TweetOnly one MVFC team played last weekend but now that the seeded teams are in on the action…we have three games involving MVFC teams. Couple of quick things: I’ll be using full-season stats now, because most of the games will not be in-conference matchups. Rankings of stat categories will be ranking within the entire FCS (out of 124 teams) I... Read More

TweetRound 1 of the FCS playoffs starts this weekend and for the first time in quite a while (first time since before the playoffs expanded to 24 teams), only one MVFC team is playing with two more seeded and have a first-round bye this weekend. Couple of quick things: I’ll be using full-season stats now, because most of the games... Read More

MVFC Week 12 In Review

November 19, 2018November 18, 2018 Scott Lawson

TweetFor more than half of the MVFC teams, the 2018 season is now over. For a few, they get to continue on and play at least one more. Now that some of the teams are done, I’ll add a little something new to the end of the recaps, highlighting a few of the seniors who (barring the odd medical redshirt... Read More

MVFC Week 12 Preview

November 16, 2018November 16, 2018 Scott Lawson

TweetAnd here we are, already to the end of the regular season, or as Bison fans call it…the ¾ mark. At this point, it’s looking quite likely that the MVFC will only get 3 teams into the playoffs…the fewest since 2013 when only 2 teams made it in. The North/South Dakota States are both in pretty much regardless of what... Read More

MVFC Week 11 Preview

TweetCan you believe we’re already to week 11? For all but a few teams (the 24 in the playoffs, plus a few odd scheduling situations), there are only two more games left in their seasons. Quite a few things could be decided this weekend, depending on how the games play out, but it’s also entirely possible that maybe only 1... Read More

MVFC Week 10 Preview

November 1, 2018November 1, 2018 Scott Lawson

TweetJust as a quick reminder, I’m now for the most part using conference games-only numbers for the stats as it helps weed out some of the “inflated” stats from some of the early OOC games and give a better idea of where teams are at this point in the season against more “equivalent” competition. When I have conference ranking numbers... Read More
